ent and reaches out for life in the

Ours is the faith in life born of
and molded in the matrix of the
Jewish spirit, and because of that
we have full confidence in the
Yishuv, and in Israel’s emerging
victorious from its present crisis
as it has emerged from preceding
crises in our long history. We feel
certain that with advent of the
State of Israel, Jewries in Canada,
U. S., and other parts of the Dias
pora will begin to reactivate them
selves with renewed inspiration
and vigor. Jews throughout the
world can enjoy a newfound dig
nity and status because of accom
plishments being mirrored in Israel
today. We must devote ourselves
morally, physically, financially and
and mentally to the upbuilding of
two life-giving civilizations, one for
our people in Israel, and the other
for Jews in the Diaspora.
Rise Up and
Hear the Bells
It was inevitable that the trans
fer of the remains of Theodor Herzl
to Israel should suggest compari
sons with the case of Joseph, who,
according to the Biblical account,
issued instructions that when his
people finally return to their land,
that his bones be taken with them.
It seems odd that Joseph should
have taken this attitude. He had
risen to the post of Prime Minister
of Egypt. He had shot up like a
meteor from a prison cell to the
highest post of the country. Surely,
Joseph should have allied himself
with the Egyptian Council for Ju
daism, not with the Zionists.
But Joseph saw deeper. That’s
why his rise had been so pheno
menal. He was a dreamer. That,
you remember, had first gotten him
in trouble with his brothers. And
he was an interpreter of dreams —
a kind of early Freud. It was his
interpreting of dreams which led
to his liberation from jail and
acquaintanceship with the king.
Joseph was not fooled by external
appearances. He saw the sub
conscious.
Many of his brethren thought
differently. We know that some
of them even wanted to report on
Moses to the Egyptian F.B.I. and
Moses had to flee. But Joseph knew
that the status of his people as a
tolerated minority in Goshen could
not be relied upon and that the
natural instinct of a people for sur
vival was something too basic to
be denied.
So, too, Theodor Herzl as a young
man was already the literary lion
of Vienna, the best feuilleton
writer in Europe while still in his
thirties. A dandy, the world in
his lap, a man to be envied, but he
tosses all this away to take up with
a dream. He, too, knows, just as
Freud, his fellow townsman of
